My students have done a beautiful sculpture (photo above) for El Dia de los Muertos (the Day of the Dead). It has painted paper mache skulls with tissue paper marigolds and other flowers. In Mexico, in other Latin countries and now, in some parts of the United States, people remember and celebrate the life of their loved ones that have past away--November 2nd and 3rd. The celebration includes music, dance, and visual arts. Photos from other schools are below. Enjoy! The work above was created by a senior in one of our high schools. Her ceramic sculptures were oohed and ahhed by all. It was brilliant, festive, and perfect for the celebration. I hope to see more of her work in the future. Our Day of the Dead Sculpture along with other fabulous works from students throughout the Oklahoma City Public schools is being exhibited at the Gold Dome in Oklahoma City (1112 NW 23rd St.). The gallery is open to the public. I hope you will go by and view the works.
